well from first glance... Texas is a team that is on the ropes right now and is definitely struggling. For once they don't have an insane spread to cover!
In the nova/wvu game I think when you look at how nova lost on Saturday it took GTown shooting lights out and Nova still was making a game of it. WVU had to shoot lights out to come back and win in a blowout so the score is misleading.
Based on the observations above I would probably take nova with the points and obviously take KU
best of luck to those that bet
